Deborah Long-Shirley, local jewelry designer

Debby fell in love with necklace design in 2003; and then ramped it up in 2006 after retiring from thirty six years of teaching. “It all started with a white coral necklace I made which received a lot of attention,” she said. But, what fuels her inspiration, are the stones. “They speak to me,” she said with a smile. “I never order online. I have to touch them, see them and begin to envision a piece in my mind.” At 63, her business is growing to where she now supplies boutiques and has individual orders rolling in.

Bring her your outfit, and she will design the perfect, unique accessory.

“It is rare that I put something together that I take apart,” she said. “My husband gave me great advice in the beginning. Just design what I would want to wear…my point of view. If I don’t like it, then I am not going to sell it.” One thing she loves is color. You see it used beautifully in her necklaces and in her home!

“When wearing a statement necklace, allow the necklace to do all of the talking,” she said. “Make sure all other accessories are minor and few, so that the eyes only go to the necklace.”

Debby is one over-50, creative woman making a difference on the SA Style Scene. Her creations are fabulous and each piece one-of-a-kind. Contact her now if you want to have a special look this year for FIESTA!
